Line 11 ⟶ 10:
Menelaus, the next to set sail, is not as lucky: he ends up in Egypt ([[No Sense of Direction|most definitely not Sparta by any stretch of the imagination]]) with only five ships, as the remainder were destroyed during the voyage.
 
Other Achaeans -- [[Seers|Calchas]], Leonteus, and Polypoites -- try a land route and avoid the dangers at sea. Calchas dies at Colophon and is buried there.
 
Agamemnon, feeling he has postponed his journey enough, is about to set out when he encounters [[Dead Person Conversation|Achilles]], who fortellsforetells what will occur and tries to stop them. His group continues regardless and meets with a storm at sea, losing many ships.
 
The storm was sent by Zeus at the request of Athena, who finally punishes Ajax for his actions in the ''Sack of Ilion''. His ship is among those lost in the storm, and he is killed on the Kapherian rocks.
